Some of the deepest secrets held by famous celebrities are often hidden in plain sight: in their court records.
However, many people don’t know how to look up someone’s record, let alone a famous person’s.
If you’re one of those people, you’re in the right place. Here’s a look at the top ten celebrities with a criminal record.
Justin Bieber
From publicly smoking marijuana in Miami to assaulting a driver in Toronto, Justin Bieber has a long history with the law.
His arrest in January of 2014 for drunk driving finally landed him in a Miami jail for a day. After this incident, Bieber eventually had to attend an anger management course and pay a $500 fine.
Lindsay Lohan
Beloved child actress from Disney’s, “The Parent Trap” did not make an easy transition to adulthood.
2010 was a particularly rough year for Lohan, who skipped a court date and was later issued an alcohol-monitoring SCRAM device. Lindsay has finally been free of all legal issues since May 2015.
DaBaby
Famed rapper from Charlotte, North Carolina, DaBaby, is another celeb with an extensive criminal background. He’s been getting arrested since 2013 according to a PopularHipHop subreddit article.
His arrests range from the possession of marijuana, driving without a license, and suspicion of robbery.
He was also involved in a shooting at a Wal-Mart in North Carolina. In this case, he was eventually found guilty of carrying a concealed gun.
Martha Stewart
Martha Stewart is one of the most notable celebrities who has actually spent several months in prison.
She was found guilty of conspiracy in 2004 after she used insider knowledge to sell some of her company’s bad stock. For this crime, Stewart spent 5 months in federal prison, which she claimed was “horrifying”.
Jared Fogle
Everyone remembers “the Subway” guy, Jared Fogle, from the infamous Subway commercials.
However, Fogle is currently serving time in federal prison for distribution of child pornography. He is also serving a sentence for “travelling to engage in illicit sexual conduct with a minor”.
Lil Kim
Rap and hip-hop artist, Lil Kim, is another celebrity who was sentenced to a year in federal prison.
According to reports, in 2005 she committed perjury and lied before a grand jury in a case involving a shootout. This shootout happened in 2001 and involved several rival rappers.
Chris Brown
Chris Brown’s run-ins with the law all stem around his relationship with then-girlfriend and fellow artist, Rihanna.
Charged with felony assault in 2009, Brown has since had to endure 5 years of probation. He also completed a 6-month stint of community service.
Khloe Kardashian
Youngest of the three Kardashian sisters, Khloe Kardashian, is another celebrity whose record is far from clean.
Khloe was first arrested for drunk driving in 2007, where she had to serve some jail time. She was also sued for an alleged assault in 2009. Additionally, together with her sisters, she was involved in a class-action lawsuit over false-advertising for a diet supplement brand.
Tim Allen
One of Hollywood’s favorite actors, Tim Allen, has battled addiction his whole life and has even been to prison.
Charged with felony drug trafficking in 1978, Allen eventually spent just over two years in federal prison. At the time of his arrest, Allen had possession of nearly 1.5 lbs of cocaine.
Charlie Sheen
Troubled and sometimes violent actor, Charlie Sheen, also makes this list for his extensive criminal history.
In and out of rehab throughout his life, Sheen has had an ongoing struggle with substance abuse that has affected his relationships. He has been accused and arrested numerous times of assault; most notably by his second wife, Denise Richards.
